For a second-straight year, Jim Harbaugh's Michigan program made the College Football Playoff. And for the second-straight year, the coach is reportedly following up that success by flirting with a return to the NFL.
Harbaugh has spoken with Carolina Panthers owner David Tepper about potentially filling the team's vacant head coach position, according to the Associated Press and ESPN. Both reports stress that the conversation wasn't a formal interview.
The Panthers are searching for a new head coach after firing Matt Rhule, the former Baylor coach who has since taken the Nebraska job.
